This week we wanted to share with you a hairstyle tutorial that shows several different ways to wear a bandana, each taking less than one minute to do!

I envision lots of you trying out these hairstyles, especially because the simple bandana accessory really can make a typical outfit look absolutely adorable!

This day, I was wearing a Mickey Mouse baseball t-shirt, with denim capris and red Converse sneakers. В Adding a little red lipstick and this bandana really made the outfit and I received compliments all day {even though my twins said I looked like a 13-yr old}!

What I love about bandana hairstyles, is that there are literally dozens more that you can do! В One of my favorite beauty vloggers of all time, and good friend of mine, is Kandee Johnson, and she really knows how to rock hat and bandana styles!

I began each style with 3rd-day curls in my hair after using my NuMe 25 mm wand. В Begin by folding the bandana…

Fold the bandana in half, making sure you bring the two points close together, but not all the way, to create a triangle shape.

Then, take the longest side and fold up the bandana three times for a thicker headband {or in half and then half again for a thinner headband}…

Make sure the open folded-edge points upward when В you wrap the bandana around your neck.

Style #1: Bandana with Bangs

Pull some of your front bangs away from the rest of your hair…

Pull the bandana up and tie it into a square knot slightly off to one side of your head {watch the video carefully to see how I tie the bandana ends to get the perfect bunny eared ends look}…

Tease the hair on your crown to add some volume behind the bandana headband.

Add hairspray, as desired.

Style #2: Bandana Side Ponytail

Secure that hair with an elastic into a low ponytail.

Loosen hair to add an element of texture and softness to the look {you want a more tousled look}…

Add a bobby pin to any stray strands В or layers that fell out of the back…

Add hairspray, as desired.

Style #3: Bandana with Messy Side Braid

Using Style #1 as your base, begin a very subtle, soft twist behind your head to help secure shorter layers into the hairstyle…

When the twist reaches your opposite shoulder, divide the hair into three sections…

Begin a normal 3-strand braid…

Secure the braid end with an elastic…

Loosen the braided hair a little to add softness…

Add hairspray, as desired.

Style #4: Bandana with Puff in Front

Begin with hair down and curled…

Do a deep part on one side of the head…

Push the hair over to one side, toward the back of the head {you can tease the bangs to add more volume if your hair is thin or straight}…

Now secure the bandana on the head in the same fashion as the above styles.В В When you tighten the bandana, it should puff up the bang area a bit creating a subtle poof in front of the bandana {the video shows you how}…

Add hairspray, as desired.

Style #5: Bandana with Solid Knot

Secure the bandana exactly as in Style #4…

Instead of leaving the ends of the bandana hanging out, tuck each end underneath the bandana {this creates a simple headband look for those that do not like the bunny ears hanging out}…

Add hairspray, as desired.

Bonus Style #6:В В Bandana Bow

Secure the bandana exactly as in Style #4…

Now fold each rabbit ear of the bandana in half and tuck the end into the knot..

This creates a small bow on the hair that looks simply adorable.

Add hairspray, as desired.
